Making a Box (Step by Step) on the CNC

I build a pretty simple #keepsake box with #boxjoints and a sliding lid on the CNC machine and go through the whole process. Thanks to 3-IN-ONE Brand for sponsoring this video! 3-IN-ONE Garage Door Lube is available at retailer near you: bit.ly/2SGaV6Q

Thanks for showing the process. It looks good. If you moved the location of the 1/16" holes so they were tangent to the corners rather than centered on them, they might be less apparent. The gaps would be about 1/4 the area, and look like shallow arcs.

[@robspotts9821]

I now have access to a CNC (although not mine), I am excited to design and make some box joints. It is like the universe brought this video to me. ;-)

[@HearGear]

This is a great video... and an interesting accent, Scandinavian for sure, maybe Sweden or Norway ?

[@MCsCreations]

Beautiful, Linn! Fantastic work! 😃 Yeah, a box production line would be sweet! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@darbinorvar]

Thanks MC! Haha yes it would be sweet!

[@OverlandTrailer]

Anytime there's a CNC, I'm hitting that link. Great build.

[@darbinorvar]

😁

[@heyimamaker]

Love the process, thanks for sharing!

[@beaniebois3796]

Thank you this has helped so much.

[@nwrasch]

Great video; thank you for sharing this.

[@SalehalOreef]

Good Work.👌🏻💯

[@jimcooney9019]

good job

[@pietjepuk9575]

Nice box, NOW i just have to get me a cnc 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@timlist4173]

I am very curious about using a CNC machine as a hobbyist. What machine would you recommend for a beginner in the cnc realm?

[@mattschorr1666]

Did you consider using the box making widget?

[@Deribn]

Great video

[@darbinorvar]

Thanks!

[@jyvas12]

it looks great! Are you selling the files for this?

[@braddahr]

Really interesting; thanks for sharing. In your opinion/experience could I glue 7 2x2x12 pieces together and then use a CNC machine to cut out an 11”diameter inch ring?

[@Jeff034]

Do you allow a few thou clearance for the box joints or just exactly the same? Tks

[@Richard-yr5zj]

Nice looking box. I’m new to CNCs (currently assembling mine). I will also be working with Aspire. I noticed the relief cuts when you initially showed the box. Thanks for explain what they were and why they’re needed. Is there any way to avoid these reliefs so the joint looks tighter? Maybe a different shaped finger?

[@tonyamburgey1549]

Maybe a tiny toothpick-sized dowel? It would be more work, but you can leave the holes out and just file the corners to 90 degrees.

[@doglao1236]

supimpa!!! tks

[@paulbouvier6520]

Anybody try a round instead of a square box joint? Thinking perfect fit as a round bit cannot cut a perfect 90 inside corner.

[@scotttovey]

So, given the link in your description, is it safe to assume that you are using Vectric Software to design and create the g-code file?

[@darbinorvar]

Yes, I'm using Vectric by Aspire

[@scotttovey]

@@darbinorvar Thank you Linn. 😎👍

[@toolsarecool]

@@scotttovey If all you intend to do is 2.5D (i.e. no 3D modeling), VCarve is a good (and substantially cheaper) alternative. VCarve can import and process 3D models as well, you just can't model in VCarve. Just FYI
